Here's the link of LFS in Bedok. http://www.tetrafishasia.com/bedok.html I'm not sure whether they are still running their business or close down.

they are still open, i got my clear pipes and joints from them for my overflow pipe system. 2-3 weeks back. No shrimps sighted there.(glass shrimps for feeders only)

Stitch: Fittonia not a water plant..I saw Nature Aquarium, outside their front door there's a waterfall feature with emerse fittonia. I dont think they are able to "trained" into growing underwater, but if any bros had manage to grow it underwater, please enlighten.

C328 'cause it is nearby and I've really learnt a lot about fish keeping through browsing at the store.....

C328 is good, for their wide range of fishes especially pleco.
Price wise also reasonable.

C328 is a one stop shop for good prices like Equipments(lots of filters n pumps) to choose from, fish , ferts , Arowana , fish food , many types of plants, ferns and mosses...oh btw mrs Toh is so energetic, never stop working

Second would be NA, Colourful and Y618(Thats Aquarium)
for NA its the best place to get your lightsets, chillers , filters and pumps at a affordable and good prices also...i love his diy lightset with reflectors

Colourful for his Giant Cardinal tetras, exotic plants and shrimps
talked to the uncle in hokkien and praise his planted tanks...you will get more cheaper price

Y618, mosses n shrimps...

thirdly for me would be Seaview...really love the supermarket concept...
big spacious store for you to browse around...best prices for bulk purchase
of fish(100pcs)...

For me, C328 for convenience (just 1 bus ride from door-step to door-step). Like their range of equipment and plants. It's like a hang out place when I need to combine retail and fish therapy. If I had wheels, would like to go to Seaview and Serangoon North more often! Guess if I had real insomnia issues, and transport was avaliable, Polyart would be my choice for its 24 hr concept (though have not gone there past public transport hours).

Being in the North, I must say that as much as I love C328 and NA...they are too far for me. I'm fortunate that we have Y618 here but lately, I found a place called KS Aquatic in Yishun (Chong Pang area) that is very convenient for me (can take bus there and back, no need to walk as far as I do for Y61 and their prices are all right.

It's family run, been there for a long time and I just spent a bunch of money there on driftwood...I was looking for small ones and their prices are great. Nice people, from the Auntie to the young guy who works there. Only one I cannot understand is this China girl who speaks a type of mandarin that I just cannot get...very chee-chee-chor-chor-sha-sha...don't know what she's saying. But then again, I can't ever seem to understand the China folks when they talk. In spite of that, she is very helpful in her own way and when I really cannot understand what she says, she asks another of the girls (I think she is part of the family who owns it) to explain. Then they all laugh at me. Oh well.

They also stock a lot of ceramic and plastic ornaments...bought a bunch of the ceramic tube things for my wild bettas...and the fish LOVE them. Cheap some more!!!

[ouuuigh]

CRShaven For shrimps
C328 for plants and fishes (i dont really buy anything there i just find those exotic fishes which is suitable for my tank den i buy)
Qianhu for fish and other items
Midori for wild betta

[kelvin]

For me, I prefer to just shop among the few popular hangouts: NA, C328, Polyart, Seaview. each has their own appeal. So it's quite hard to really choose one as the favourite.

[jiajuen900]

erm mine would be NA and biotope.

Could anyone reccomend LFS for rare and exotic fish?
